Shotguns are not permitted on the public line.
All firearms must have sights or optics installed when used on the public line.

Closed-toe shoes are required. Sandals and flip-flops are not permitted.
Eye and ear protection must be worn at all times.
Hats are recommended but not required.

Range Courtesy

No profanity. WAC is a family-friendly facility and welcomes junior shooters.
Be mindful of ejected brass and ensure it strikes the safety barriers whenever possible.
During the two-minute warning, shooters should begin collecting brass and preparing the line for the next cease-fire period.

Safety Reminder

Safety is every shooter's responsibility. If you observe an unsafe condition or are unsure about any procedure, immediately contact the Range Officer on duty.
